Descrição: As an important practice of map generalization, the aim of line simplification is to reduce the number of points without destroying the essential shape or the salient character of a cartographic curve. This subject has been well studied in the literature. This entry attempts to introduce how line simplification can be guided by fractal geometry, or the recurring scaling pattern of far more small things than large ones. The line simplification process involves nothing more than removing small things while retaining large ones based on head/tail breaks.
